Svetlana Travis Zakharova, 25, cried and shook her head during her arraignment in Manhattan Supreme Court as a judge strongly implied that she would wind up serving prison time.

“This is one of those crimes, it’s an odd crime,” Justice Charles Solomon said, adding a strange dose of pre-judgement to the proceeding. “It’s either probation or state prison, no in between. I’m not sure probation is her outcome.”

Wearing tan prison scrubs, Zakharova pleaded not guilty to the top charge of second-degree grand larceny — a felony that could land her behind bars for 15 years.

Prosecutor Thomas Boyle successfully argued to keep her bail at $1 million, flagging that she was accused of “16 felonies spanning two years” and regularly depositing cash into at least three different banks.

“Then this money went to Russian banks in significant amounts,” Boyle said, adding that she paid an “extensive amount” of money to consistently advertise on Backpage.

Boyle also warned that “once she is gone, she is gone for good” — even though Zakharova surrendered her passport to the court.

Her defense attorney, Christopher Wright, said her passport was confiscated after the NYPD arrested upon her arrival at Kennedy Airport on her way to California to face a trespassing charge.

Wright then countered by saying that Zakharova didn’t have the resources to post such a high bail because her family lives in Moscow.

“One million dollars with no criminal record strikes me as very unfair for her. She’s not here for a violent crime. Quite frankly, I don’t think anything more than $50,000 is something she can make,” Wright argued.
